Salesforce Platform Reviews

We are using Salesforce Platform to manage our leads, proposals, and POs.

Salesforce helps manage our leads and the conversion of leads, perform analytics, generate sales reports, track what is converted, what is in the proposal phase, etc. It is also being used to manage discussions with clients by connecting with emails.

The most valuable features of Salesforce Platform are its analytics capabilities. The automation and connection with emails allow us to track discussions with clients. Its dashboards are also very useful and provide detailed insights.

One area that could use improvement is the approval mechanism in the authenticator, which is unstable. It often stops working after two or three times and requires the use of codes.

We have been using Salesforce Platform for five years now.

Salesforce Platform is stable. Apart from the issue with the authenticator, everything else works fine.

We are using it for a couple of users, so I cannot comment on the scalability aspect.

We were using Odoo as an ERP before switching to Salesforce Platform. Odoo has a CRM module, but it is not as professional as Salesforce. Odoo requires more customization and coding.

The initial setup involves some customization and working on parameters. It normally takes one week to ten days to configure.

We are integrating Salesforce with Jira, and we have experts to handle this, so there were no issues on our end.

We evaluated Odoo. However, it is not as professional as the Salesforce Platform.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

My primary use case for Salesforce is managing and analyzing data related to sales opportunities and leads. It includes extracting data to analyze service performance. 

The product's most valuable features are a user-friendly interface and comprehensive CRM capabilities. These features help manage sales data and extract meaningful insights from opportunities and leads.

The product's pricing model could be improved, as some features are only available in paid modules, which can be costly. 

I have been using Salesforce Platform primarily as an end user for several years.

The platform is stable.

The platform is scalable, as it effectively supports the commercial team in our medium-sized organization.

The technical support services are good. 

The product generally requires specialized knowledge for configuration.

The product's additional features can be expensive. 

I rate Salesforce Platform an eight out of ten. 

I use the Salesforce Platform for customer relationship management. I use the solution for tracking and managing the customer lifecycle and the sales cycle.

I found the ease of use most valuable in the Salesforce Platform. I also found the platform pretty light.

The Salesforce team is building some intelligence into the Salesforce Platform, but it needs more automation. In particular, I want more analytics in the platform and the addition of AI-based models, for example, predictive feedback. The Salesforce Platform needs to be more intelligent and intuitive to make it a great solution.

What I want to add to the Salesforce Platform is the ability to organize and present information on the dashboards more intelligently, as that would be of great help.

I've been using the Salesforce Platform for about one year now.

I've never contacted the Salesforce Platform technical support team because my company has a separate operations team in charge of getting support.

The initial setup for the Salesforce Platform was easy, so it's a nine out of ten in this area.

I have no idea how long the deployment took because I wasn't involved in the platform's deployment.

I'm part of a product company in the synthetic data space rather than traditional TDM solutions. I head the global analysis team in my company.

For CRM, my company uses the Salesforce Platform. It also uses Amazon Web Services. I'm also a user of the Salesforce Platform.

The Salesforce Platform is on the cloud, so I always use the latest version.

At least thirty-five people use the Salesforce Platform in my company.

The Salesforce Platform is a solution I would recommend to others.

My rating for the platform is nine out of ten based on its usability. The most important driving factor to me is its ease of use. The Salesforce Platform also has excellent features and functionalities. It's also important to me that the Salesforce Platform is a lightweight solution and very flexible to use on the cloud.

My company is a Salesforce customer.

We use this solution to maintain the information of our existing customers. We generate reports and analyze how customers have been interacting with the company. We also use Salesforce to find trends to make informed decisions in terms of events and marketing campaigns. 

This solution is accurate. 

The solution is not completely user-friendly, but it is user-friendly enough to support our day to day work. The Lighting version could be more smooth. We keep opting for the Classic version because it seems that it is least likely to get stuck. The Lighting version needs to be faster and easier to be able to get the information that we want.

The reporting for Salesforce could also be approved. It is a manual process and it would be useful to have a guide or videos on how to generate reports or any other cool things that you could do with the platform.

I have been using this solution for one and a half years. 

This is a stable solution. The Lightning version is a tad slow but the Classic version is more user-friendly.

The solution comes ready to use and there was nothing that we needed to do to get started. It was a matter of accessing the application and logging in using our credentials for our day to day work. As a first time user, the training that we were given helped us understand how to navigate the platform.

From an employee point of view, I would recommend Salesforce. It is user-friendly. 

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten. 

We use the Salesforce Platform for all the CRM activities in the organization.

Salesforce Platform could improve by having better integration with Microsoft Azure. For development, we use Microsoft Azure and there was proper integration between the two solutions. We had issues with the customer and they were logged into the Salesforce Platform. We did not have any good way of integrating those issues into the R&D. The R&D mainly uses Microsoft Azure.

I have been using the Salesforce Platform for approximately four years.

Salesforce Platform is stable.

We use Salesforce for all of our customer resource management, forecasting and tracking our contacts and opportunities. We also use it to make internal requests.

A company needs to carefully consider how they set up Salesforce in order to ensure it benefits them. 

I have been using Salesforce for 16 years.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten. 

We use Salesforce to keep track of our customers' activity.

The solution is used to track our customers.

Salesforce needs to be re-platformed, or re-architected, making it lighter. It also needs an easier code to work with.

Initial setup should be easier and faster. 

Personally, I do not see that much value in Salesforce.

I have been using Salesforce for 10 years.

Salesforce is stable.

The initial setup could be done faster if it was easier.

The most valuable features of the Salesforce Platform are the ability to manage customers' data, many report filtering options, and consolidation.

I have not used the support from Salesforce Platform.

I have not used another solution other than Salesforce Platform in this category.

When there is a need to update the solution I do it and it is simple. We have a team that did the implementation of the Salesforce Platform.

The Salesforce Platform has not gone down in the time we have used it, it is very stable. I would recommend this solution to others.

This is a stable solution. 

This is a scalable solution. 

The technical support for this solution is very good.

I custom develop this solution for different clients. It is a platform that allows you to get applications quickly to the end user in a secure way. It is a fast and easy solution but it is not cheap. 

The integration of Salesforce with other solutions could be improved.

I have 11 years experience working with Salesforce. 

This is a very stable solution. 

This is a scalable solution. 

The customer service team at Salesforce get the job done but they are not fast. The technical support could be improved. 

Neutral

The cost of this solution depends on negotiations. It is somewhere between expensive and reasonable. There is always additional costs for consulting services. It's the kind of solution that requires consulting, but it is not a licensing cost. It is a consulting cost. It is CAPEX versus OPEX.

I would recommend this solution for medium to large enterprises. 

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.
